Build-A-Snowman Beta Released!Happy Holidays, Everyone! It looks like Santa Norn has arrived at Creatures Caves a day early this year: Have some festive fun by building a snowman for you and your creatures to enjoy. This agent comes complete with snowball, carrot, stick and coal dispensers for all your decorative needs. Psst, click the snowballs to make them bigger! The carrots are also edible, so be sure to watch them around your Norns!

[Download Build-a-Snowman for DS]

Please be aware that this beta version is by no means perfect, as there are still some bugs present, but now we want to spend time with our families. [nsanta] However, we'll be back to have another tinker with it after Christmas, so feel free to report any issues!

The spritefile is right, and it certainly got more than 12 frames. Maybe you got something else already which uses a spritefile with that name?

As it turned out, that was the case - this Snowman and the Snowman included in the official Advent pack use the same sprite file name, which was causing the issue. For whatever reason though, I had to decompile the agent to get the actual sprite file.

Sorry! I blame those pesky elves at Santa Norn's workshop. :$ Anyway, I've just uploaded a new version of the agent with the sprite file renamed to something more original, so what you've experienced should no longer be a problem. :)

Looks very great! This sure brings some nice Petz nostalgia to Creatures. :)

It looks like it took a lot of time to code and sprite it. My compliments! Thanks for your awesome work, Laura. :D

Thanks, Eprillios! I'd forgotten that there's a similar snowman in Petz.

I hope you enjoy playing with the Build-A-Snowman. :) It only took a few days to create, and it still needs some work, but it really wouldn't have been possible without Mea's awesome sprites and Papriko's invaluable coding tips!

Ahw, don't mind me so much, I just minimally corrected a script or two, otherwise it was mostly Lauras work... :D

This looks like so much fun, Laura! I'm still on a bit of a holiday break, but you bet my world will be teeming with snowmen when I get back to it!

Hi Jessica, I hope you had a good Christmas!

Excellent; hopefully you and your creatures will enjoy playing with it when you do! Any feedback is also greatly appreciated, as it'll help us iron out any bugs, so let us know how you get on with building your snowmen. :)
